Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, and particularly to an adjustable bending guide wire assembly. Background Art
[0002] A guide wire, also known as a guiding wire or a guide lead, is one of the main tools for percutaneous catheterization. The guide wire has a guiding and supporting effect on the catheter, and is used to guide medical devices such as catheters and delivery sheaths into blood vessels and other body cavities, and smoothly reach the designated position or the lesion site. However, due to the natural curvature of blood vessels and the complex human anatomical structure, the guide wire may bend and coil in the lumen, thus affecting its passability.
[0003] During use, doctors have gradually felt that there are some problems with traditional guide wires, mainly including: traditional guide wires are non-adjustable in bending and have a single distal bending shape design. Each guide wire adopts a fixed bending shape design, which means that they are only suitable for specific types of blood vessels or cavity structures. When encountering different tortuous situations, the fixed-bending guide wire may encounter jamming problems and cannot smoothly pass through complex anatomical paths. Due to the anatomical structure differences among different patients and the different degrees and types of tortuosity that may occur during the same surgical procedure, the single-bending guide wire cannot meet all clinical needs.
[0004] In response to this, engineers in the medical field have developed some adjustable bending guide wires to alleviate the above technical problems. Taking the existing patent authorization announcement number CN204972649U as an example, the structure of these adjustable bending guide wires is introduced as follows: The existing patent authorization announcement number CN204972649U discloses an internal medicine intervention adjustable bending fishing guide wire. Its bending adjustment control end consists of a handle base, a handle screw rod, an adjustment wire, and a metal adjustment ring. Through the threaded cooperation between the handle screw rod and the handle base, the adjustment wire is pulled to move proximally, driving the metal adjustment ring to achieve the bending of the distal spring clip section. Although these guide wires represented by the existing patent authorization announcement number CN204972649U can achieve a certain bending adjustment function, there are still some problems, mainly including:
[0005] (1) The product structure is relatively complex, with many components, high requirements for production processes, and high operation complexity;
[0006] (2) The adjustment wire is parallel to the guide wire. During the bending adjustment process, not only the distal end of the guide wire bends, but the proximal end will also bend to a certain extent due to the force. This bending state will cause the torsional controllability of the guide wire to deteriorate, which is not conducive to the guide wire pointing to the designated position in the lumen;
[0007] (3) The bending angle is limited. Although the existing adjustable bending guide wires can adjust the front-end bending angle to a certain extent, the achievable angle change range is still relatively limited and is not sufficient to cope with some complex lumen environments;
[0008] (4) The guide wire body is fixedly connected to the operating handle. After the guide wire reaches the designated position, the bending adjustment handle cannot be disassembled, which is not conducive to the catheter passing through the guide wire for exchange;
[0009] (5) In the prior art, the softness and hardness of the guide wire are single and non-adjustable. The guide wire is mostly of a single hardness or a gradually changing hardness in segments. As the guide wire passes through tortuous environments, the hardness requirements for its proximal and distal positions may not be fixed. Therefore, the adaptability of the softness and hardness of the existing guide wire to the tortuous vascular environment is not high, and it is easy to damage the blood vessels or fail to reach the target position. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0010] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an adjustable bending guide wire assembly to alleviate the technical problems existing in the prior art.
[0011] To achieve the above object, the embodiments of the present invention adopt the following technical solutions:
[0012] The embodiments of the present invention provide an adjustable bending guide wire assembly, including a guide wire body, and the guide wire body includes a core tube, a bending adjustment inner tube, and a bending adjustment outer tube; wherein:
[0013] The core tube includes a proximal section of the core tube and a distal section of the core tube pre-bent into a curly shape;
[0014] The bending adjustment outer tube is sleeved outside the core tube, and at least its distal tube section is a coiled tube. The distal part of the coiled tube is sleeved outside the distal section of the core tube to form a pre-bent section that follows the distal section of the core tube and bends into a curly shape;
[0015] The bending adjustment inner tube is axially slidably arranged between the outer wall of the core tube and the inner wall of the bending adjustment outer tube, and the hardness of the bending adjustment inner tube is greater than the hardness of the coiled tube;
[0016] Axially sliding the bending adjustment inner tube relative to the core tube and the bending adjustment outer tube, the distal tube section of the bending adjustment inner tube can extend distally or retract proximally into the pre-bent section of the coiled tube, thereby changing the bending degree of the pre-bent section of the coiled tube, and further changing the bending degree of the distal section of the core tube.
[0017] The embodiments of the present invention can at least achieve the following beneficial effects:
[0018] In the adjustable bending guide wire assembly provided in this embodiment, the distal pipe section of the inner bending pipe is a straight pipe section. When it extends distally into the pre-bent section of the spring-wound pipe, it will straighten the proximal area of the pre-bent section. Since the pre-bent section is also part of the spring-wound pipe, the spring pitch of the pre-bent section is reduced, and the pre-bent section pulls the distal pipe section of the coiled core pipe inside it, causing a corresponding change in the bending degree (coiling degree) of the distal pipe section of the core pipe. When the straight distal pipe section of the inner bending pipe is withdrawn from the spring-wound pipe proximally, the pre-bent section and the distal pipe section of the core pipe self-elasticly return to the prefabricated bending degree, thereby adjusting the distal curvature of the guide wire body according to the actual vascular tortuosity of the patient.
[0019] The structure of this embodiment is simple and easy to manufacture. In terms of the adjustment method, it is adjusted by axially sliding the inner bending pipe relative to the other two layers of pipes on the basis of the three-layer pipes of the core pipe, the inner bending pipe, and the outer bending pipe, which is convenient for operation and will not affect the torsional controllability of the guide wire body during the adjustment process. Therefore, the directivity is stronger, and it is more conducive to the guide wire body pointing to the specified position in the cavity. In addition, since the pre-bent section of the spring-wound pipe and the distal pipe section of the core pipe inside it can be prefabricated into a coiled shape, and the number of coiled layers is not limited. For example, it can be half a turn, one turn, two turns, etc. Then, by controlling the degree of straightening, the number of layers can be adjusted. Therefore, it can adapt to the vascular tortuous turning angle at any angle (including greater than or equal to 360°) in space, and the adjustable range of the head angle of the guide wire body is wider, which is more conducive to adapting to the complex cavity environment.

[0070] The terms "first", "second", etc. are only used for distinguishing descriptions, and do not represent a total number, or a relative position in time and / or space, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0071] Hereinafter, taking the end of a medical device closer to the operator during surgery as the proximal end of the medical device, and the end of the medical device entering the patient's blood vessel as the distal end of the medical device (the front end of the medical device is the distal end, and the rear end of the medical device is the proximal end); with reference to the accompanying drawings, some embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail.
[0072] This embodiment provides an adjustable bending guide wire assembly. Refer to Figures 1 to 5 The adjustable bending guide wire assembly provided in this embodiment includes a guide wire main body 100, and the guide wire main body 100 includes a core tube 1, a bending adjustment outer tube 2, and a bending adjustment inner tube 3, where: The core tube 1 includes a core tube proximal section 11 and a core tube distal section 12 pre-bent into a curly shape. The bending adjustment outer tube 2 is sleeved outside the core tube 1, and at least its distal tube section is a coiled tube 21. The distal part of the coiled tube 21 is sleeved outside the core tube distal section 12 to form a pre-bent section 211 that bends into a curly shape following the core tube distal section 12. The bending adjustment inner tube 3 is axially slidably arranged between the outer wall of the core tube 1 and the inner wall of the bending adjustment outer tube 2, and at least the distal tube section of the bending adjustment inner tube 3 is a straight tube section with a hardness greater than that of the coiled tube 21. When the bending adjustment inner tube 3 slides axially relative to the core tube 1 and the bending adjustment outer tube 2, the distal tube section of the bending adjustment inner tube 3 can extend distally or retract proximally into the pre-bent section 211 of the coiled tube 21, thereby changing the bending degree (curling degree) of the pre-bent section 211 of the coiled tube 21, and further changing the bending degree (curling degree) of the core tube distal section 12.
[0073] It should be specifically noted that the above coiled tube 21 can be a spiral wound wire tube structure, can also be obtained by helically slitting a metal pipe fitting, or can be made by other processes. This application does not make specific limitations on this.
[0074] In the above adjustable bending guide wire assembly provided in this embodiment, as Figure 5 shown, the distal tube section of the bending adjustment inner tube 3 is a straight tube section. When it extends distally into the pre-bent section 211 of the coiled tube 21, it will straighten the proximal region of the pre-bent section 211. And since the pre-bent section 211 is also a part of the coiled tube 21, the spring pitch of the pre-bent section 211 is reduced. The pre-bent section 211 pulls the coiled core tube distal section 12 inside it, causing the bending degree (curling degree) of the core tube distal section 12 to change accordingly. When the straight distal tube section of the bending adjustment inner tube 3 retracts proximally from the coiled tube 21, the pre-bent section 211 and the core tube distal section 12 self-elasticly return to the prefabricated bending degree, thereby adjusting the distal curvature of the guide wire main body 100 according to the actual vascular tortuosity state of the patient.
[0075] This embodiment has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture. In terms of the adjustment method, on the basis of the three-layer tubes of the core tube 1, the inner bending adjustment tube 3, and the outer bending adjustment tube 2, the inner bending adjustment tube 3 is axially slid relative to the other two layers of tubes for adjustment, which is convenient for operation and will not affect the torsional control of the guide wire body 100 during the adjustment process, so the directivity is stronger and it is more conducive to the guide wire body 100 pointing to the specified position in the cavity. In addition, since the pre-bent section 211 of the coil tube 21 and the distal section 12 of the core tube inside it can be prefabricated into a curled shape, and the number of curled layers is not limited. For example, it can be half a turn, one turn, two turns, etc. Then, by controlling the degree of straightening, the number of layers can be adjusted. Therefore, it can adapt to the vascular tortuous turns at any angle (including greater than or equal to 360°) in the space, and the adjustable range of the head end angle of the guide wire body 100 is wider, which is more conducive to adapting to the complex intracavitary environment.
[0076] In this embodiment, for the more specific structure of the above-mentioned guide wire body 100, optionally, the structure of the core tube 1 can be an integral solid tubular structure or an integral hollow tubular structure, or a combination of a hollow tubular structure and a solid tubular structure. Optionally, at least the distal section 12 of the core tube is a solid tube section, and the distal end of the proximal section 11 of the core tube is transitionally connected to the proximal end of the distal section 12 of the core tube through a gradually tapered transition section 13 with a diameter gradually decreasing from the proximal end to the distal end. That is, the diameter of the proximal section 11 of the core tube is greater than the diameter of the distal section 12 of the core tube. The distal section 12 of the core tube being a solid tube section can be regarded as the distal section 12 of the core tube being a filamentous structure. Thus, it can ensure that the proximal section 11 of the core tube has a certain supporting force to maintain the torsional control of the proximal end of the core tube 1 and ensure that the guide wire head reaches the target position more accurately, and can also ensure that the distal section 12 of the core tube has good bending plasticity to adapt to various tortuous angles of blood vessels.
[0077] Optionally, in addition to the coil tube 21 at the distal end, the outer bending adjustment tube 2 further includes a straight proximal connecting tube 22; the distal end of the proximal connecting tube 22 is fixedly connected to the proximal end of the coil tube 21, such as Figure 4As shown, an initial positioning structure 220 is further provided between the inner wall of the proximal connecting tube 22 and the outer wall of the bending inner tube 3 for initially positioning the bending outer tube 2 relative to the bending inner tube 3; the initial positioning structure 220 includes an arc-shaped positioning groove 2201 provided on one of the inner wall of the proximal connecting tube 22 and the outer wall of the bending inner tube 3 and an arc-shaped positioning protrusion 2202 provided on the other. By providing the initial positioning structure 220, the proximal connecting tube 22 of the bending outer tube 2 and the bending inner tube 3 can be initially positioned during use, preventing the phenomenon of "random movement" of the head end angle of the guide wire body 100 during the process of inserting the guide wire body 100 into the patient's cavity, which is more conducive to the delivery of the guide wire body 100. Since the initial positioning structure 220 is a combined structure of an arc-shaped positioning groove 2201 and an arc-shaped positioning protrusion 2202, thus, after being delivered in place, when the bending inner tube 3 slides axially relative to the bending outer tube 2, it can smoothly slide through the arc-shaped area of the initial positioning structure 220 with a little force to achieve the bending function.
[0078] In addition, in an alternative embodiment of the present embodiment, referring to Figure 6 and Figure 7 , in combination with Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 14 , the adjustable bending guide wire assembly provided in the present embodiment may further include an adjusting core wire 4 for adjusting the hardness of the guide wire body 100; at least the proximal section 11 of the core tube 1 is a hollow tube section, the distal end of the adjusting core wire 4 is inserted into the core tube 1 from the proximal pipe orifice of the proximal section 11 of the core tube, the proximal end of the adjusting core wire 4 is exposed outside the core tube 1, and the adjusting core wire 4 can axially slide relative to the core tube 1. This design is an improvement in response to the problems of the existing guide wire having a single non-adjustable softness and hardness, low adaptability to tortuous vascular environments, being prone to damaging blood vessels or being unable to reach the target position. By pushing the adjusting core wire 4 forward (distally) or pulling it backward (proximally), the hardness of the proximal section 11 of the core tube is changed, realizing the function of adjusting the hardness of the proximal section 11 of the core tube in real time and thus adjusting the hardness of the guide wire body 100 in real time, so that the softness and hardness of the guide wire body 100 can be arbitrarily controlled, thereby adapting to the vascular environment of the region and smoothly reaching the lesion site without damaging the blood vessels.
[0079] To further improve the delivery and bending stability of the guide wire body 100, continue to refer to Figures 1 to 5, in an alternative embodiment of the steerable guide wire assembly provided in this embodiment, the outer bending tube 2 further includes a straight proximal connecting tube 22; the proximal connecting tube 22, the proximal section of the core tube 11, and the inner bending tube 3 are all rigid tubes; the steerable guide wire assembly further includes a handle tube 51, a first fixing sleeve 52, and a second fixing sleeve 53. The first fixing sleeve 52 is nested inside the handle tube 51, and the proximal section of the core tube 11 is nested and interference-fitted inside the first fixing sleeve 52. The second fixing sleeve 53 is disposed between the outer wall of the proximal section of the core tube 11 and the inner wall of the proximal tube section of the inner bending tube 3 and is in frictional engagement with the outer wall of the proximal section of the core tube 11 and the inner wall of the proximal tube section of the inner bending tube 3 respectively. In this structure, the proximal section of the core tube 11 is fixed by the handle tube 51 and the first fixing sleeve 52, and the second fixing sleeve 53 maintains the gap between the inner bending tube 3 and the proximal section of the core tube 11, preventing the inner bending tube 3 from wobbling relative to the proximal section of the core tube 11 when delivering the guide wire body 100 and axially sliding the inner bending tube 3 for bending, thereby improving the stability when delivering the guide wire body 100 and bending the head end of the guide wire body 100.
[0080] Further, the diameter of the distal tube section of the first fixing sleeve 52 can be further designed to be smaller than the diameter of the proximal tube section, so as to form a stepped hole 521 between the outer peripheral surface of the distal tube section of the first fixing sleeve 52 and the inner peripheral surface of the distal tube section of the handle tube 51; the proximal tube section of the inner bending tube 3 is inserted into the stepped hole 521 and is in frictional engagement with the hole wall of the stepped hole 521, serving as the initial adjustment position of the inner bending tube 3, further preventing the inner bending tube 3 from wobbling during delivery and increasing the delivery stability of the guide wire body 100.
[0081] To further facilitate the operation of the surgeon, referring to Figures 8 to 14 , in combination with Figures 1 to 5, in some alternative embodiments of the present embodiment, the bendable guide wire assembly further includes a detachable operating handle 200, and the detachable operating handle 200 includes a handle housing 6, a handle tube fixing assembly 7, a bending outer tube fixing assembly 8, a bending inner tube driving assembly 9, and a bending inner tube locking member 10. Inside the handle housing 6, there is a handle housing inner cavity 6001 extending axially and at least penetrating the distal end surface of the handle housing 6. At least the part of the guide wire body 100 located on the proximal side of the proximal connecting tube 22 and the entire proximal connecting tube 22 are inserted into the handle housing inner cavity 6001. At least a part of the handle tube fixing assembly 7 is arranged in the handle housing inner cavity 6001 and frictionally cooperates with the outer tube wall of the handle tube 51, so as to fix the handle tube 51 in the handle housing inner cavity 6001. At least a part of the bending outer tube fixing assembly 8 is arranged in the handle housing inner cavity 6001 and frictionally cooperates with the outer tube wall of the proximal connecting tube 22, so as to fix the proximal connecting tube 22 in the handle housing inner cavity 6001. On the handle housing 6, there is a driving long hole 6002 penetrating the housing wall of the handle housing 6 radially and extending axially along the handle housing 6; a part of the bending inner tube driving assembly 9 passes through the driving long hole 6002 and extends into the handle housing inner cavity 6001 to frictionally cooperate with the outer tube wall of the proximal tube section of the bending inner tube 3, and the other part of the bending inner tube driving assembly 9 is located outside the handle housing 6; the bending inner tube driving assembly 9 can axially slide relative to the handle housing 6 along the driving long hole 6002 to drive the bending inner tube 3 to axially slide along the handle housing 6. The bending inner tube locking member 10 is movably installed outside the handle housing 6 and is used to lock the bending inner tube driving assembly 9 to the handle housing 6 when the bending inner tube driving assembly 9 axially slides in place. This alternative embodiment provides a detachable operating handle 200, which is assembled with the guide wire body 100 provided in any of the foregoing alternative embodiments.

When the bending inner tube driving assembly 9 axially slides in place, the bending inner tube driving assembly 9 is locked by the bending inner tube locking member 10, and then the bending inner tube 3 is locked, completing the entire process of delivering the guide wire body 100 to the target position. After completion, the detachable operating handle 200 can be removed, and other subsequent instruments for treatment (such as a covered stent delivery sheath) can be inserted along the delivered guide wire body 100. The structural design of the detachable operating handle 200 is based on the principle of frictional fit positioning, and it can be detached from the guide wire body 100 after the guide wire body 100 is delivered in place, and the subsequent instrument is inserted using the guide wire body 100, which is beneficial for the exchange of the subsequent instrument sheath through the guide wire and solves the problem that the guide wire body 100 is too thin and difficult to deliver.
